[SEDXC] DEAD BANDS?

[Clark Macaulay]

RR from a Little Pistol here.

In my limited operating time, I managed to get 105 Q's from all
continents.  There was no shortage of stations I could hear and work with
my 100w.

I think the complaints about band conditions is due, in part, to lack of
activity during the week nowadays when you could seemingly get on at any
time and snag a new one. The contests really bring people out, don't they?
Great fun!!

A Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to all from our family to yours!
